An Art Entrepreneur, a designer and Artists, Rashmi Agarwal is a Founder and Chairperson of the Qatar based WLL Company-MAPS International, living in the State of Qatar since 2004. She is the Board member of SPIN, USA and holds positions in many sectors.
It's mesmerizing beyond words. Agarwal grew up in Kolkata-India, racking up degrees in Law, Economics and Finance. She lives in Doha, the capital city of Qatar from last 15 years. It is the wild beauty of her surroundings that inspires her designing and artistic world. Art is her ?rst love. Since child- hood, she has been highly engaged in visual art. Having groomed up in an educated background with learned Parents creativity and Painting to her, represents meditation and very near to God and nature.
She is an experienced designer and master artist whose work gets consistently better from one art to the next to rely on inspiration is to starve. She analyses every design she makes to ensure it is the best it can be. Artists need to have an intuition and eye for design that cannot always be taught and to be a successful artist and designer, fashion has to be your lifestyle. Her designer scarves are appreciated all over the world.
She believes each has something precious and special to give to all of us and many of her art has a spiritual quality with the power to heal hearts and spirits, if one is open to their message. All her art says some story and she believes that good art asks more questions than it answers. And so it is often in this clash between the architecture of man and the architecture of nature, where I gain most of my artistic inspiration. It is where the most compelling questions can be asked, and where the stories I wish my art to tell can most often be found.
It is adorable to see Rashmi at work; each stroke is the baton of a master conductor, harmonizing every aspect of her designs, patterns, textures, and colours, are all united to create a masterpiece. She adds: "With my art, I am giving a part of ME."
